For sale here is a 2018 Grand Seiko SBGJ203 Mt. Iwate Hi-beat GMT in Full Set. I purchased it from my co-worker who was the original owner and got it at the Tokyo Narita Airport GS store back in Oct 2018. Intro quote from the GS website: This model incorporates Caliber 9S86, the high-specification movement that delivers the same accuracy (-5 to +3 seconds a day) and the same power reserve (55 hours) as the core Caliber 9S85. The exterior design is a modern take on the stunning 'Grand Seiko Style'—the embodiment of the Grand Seiko design philosophy which was first established for the 44GS in 1967—and features a distortion-free, wide mirror surface throughout. A beautifully delicate and polished finish has been created on the dial, with a 'Mount Iwate pattern', inspired by the many-ridged contours of the Mt. Iwate, the mountain that is visible through the windows of the Shizuku-Ishi Watch Studio where Grand Seiko mechanical watches are made.

The dial is in perfect condition. The texture is a bit difficult to catch with my camera and light conditions at home. You can check the pictures out online or in videos such as this one.
Would you de so kind as to post some sunny window sill shots? Play of light on that dial would be nice to see.
Ok... I'll take a few shots when I get a chance. Really busy with work this week and it was cloudy during the past few days. Plus the watch has been packaged back in the case... Will post in a few days.
